The Ultimate Impossible Revelation: Jon Allen's 'Destination Box'

Prepare to elevate your close-up performances with 'Destination Box,' a truly unparalleled card-to-box effect developed and perfected by the legendary Jon Allen. While many variations of this classic plot exist, none have ever achieved the sheer impossibility, versatility, and examinability of Allen's masterpiece. This is the effect Jon himself uses to close his own close-up shows, and it's the signature finale for our own Andi Gladwin's walkaround performances – a testament to its undeniable power. Once your audience experiences 'Destination Box,' everything else pales in comparison; it's simply that strong.

An Impeccable Design, An Unbelievable Method

The journey begins with elegance: you hand a spectator a beautifully crafted, genuine walnut box, secured firmly with a metal lock and padlock, to hold onto throughout your act. The anticipation builds. At the climax of any signed card routine, you retrieve the box, unlock it, and within, they'll find not just one, but a second, smaller box. Inside that final enclosure rests their very own signed card. The genius lies in its purity: there's absolutely no switch involved, meaning the card inside is genuinely their signed selection. The entire box, once opened, is 100% examinable, leaving your audience utterly dumbfounded. Furthermore, you're free to use any card back design, as there are zero duplicates to worry about – pure, unadulterated magic.

Versatility Beyond Cards: A Multipurpose Masterpiece

While 'Destination Box' is a phenomenal closer for card routines, its brilliance isn't limited to playing cards. Jon Allen designed this elegant prop for remarkable versatility. Imagine performing a 'Confabulation' routine where a predicted item appears inside the locked box, or revealing a borrowed, signed bill instead of a card. It's even perfectly suited for a compelling 'Headline Prediction,' adding layers of mystery to your act. The prop itself is stunningly well-made, offering a luxurious look and feel that instantly conveys quality and professionalism.

Original Specs

Let’s be real. There are a lot of Card To Box effects on the market. Most are variations of Bruce Hennig’s work. But, nothing has ever come close to Jon Allen’s incredible “Destination Box”.

It’s how Jon closes his close up shows. And It’s how our own Andi Gladwin closes his walkaround shows too, and we think you’ll feel the same way after you try it. It’s just impossible to do anything after this, because it is just so strong.

At the start of your act, you give someone an elegant, walnut box to hold. It is fastened closed by a metal lock and padlock. As an ending to any signed card routine, you unlock the box the spectator has been holding for the whole show to reveal another box inside. And inside that is, of course, the signed card.

Here are the important details:

• The card inside the box is the signed card
• There’s no switch
• The box is 100% examinable
• You can use any card back design (because there are no duplicates)

But, there’s more to this. You can use this box not only for that amazing ending to your show, but it is not limited to playing cards. You could use a bill if you’d prefer. You can use it for a Confabulation routine. It can even be used as a Headline Prediction.

This is stunningly well made, and looks and feels beautiful.

Jon Allen has been using this for 20 years, and we’re delighted to let you know it will finally be available again from next Monday (June 19th).

We don’t often promote pre-order items, but in this case, we do urge you to pre-order because it almost certainly will sell out, and at the time of writing, we’re unsure how many units will be made available to us.
